Application. filed February To (1]!

The purpose of the invention is the provision of a radiator for internal comb stion engines which will present a maximum cooling surface and M the same time invoive a construction whereby the VilriOilS parts are reiiily accessibie for repairs which are frequently made necessary because of the strain to which devices of this ehzu'zicier are subjected when in use.

The invention provides a radiator for antomobile engines of. the internai combustion type said radiator eniiioiiyihg a body portion em a jacket, the hatter being removable to admitof any part of the i'nihaiur being reached for needed repair, and such jacket when in pwitien givin a finished ap peamnee "0 the radiator,

should it become necessary to cut one or more of the cooling tubes the same may be spliced without detracting from the appearance of the radiator-because such repairs are concealed by the jacket when the latter is in place. I

From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the agvant'ages of the construction and the metho of operation wifi be readily apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention appertains, and while I have described the principle of operation of the invention, together with the device which I now consider to be the best embodiment thereof, I desire to have it understood that the device shown is merely illustrative, and that such changes maybe made when desired as 3 are within the scope of the claim appended 1 hereto. I Having thus described the invention what claimed as new, is i E An automobile radiator comprising upper and lower headers and intermediate tubes, the upper header having a centrally l disposed filling tube at its top, a jacket del tachably fitted to the radiator by a vertically sliding movement, said jackethaving 1 its front portion op osite the tubular part of the radiator per l being further provided .at its top with a tube to slip over the filling tube of the radiator to form a handle and also serve as means to retain the jacket in position and a cap threaded upon the filling tube and ens jacket from moving vertically.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses. v
